What school district is Pickering Elementary School part of?
The teachers get to involved in the students personal lives at home and read more into a problem than what is really going on. I go to every parent/teachers conference and I am told everything is great and when there is a problem it is too late for me to get a handle on things. Taking Psych 101 does not qualify you as a doctor. I think they need to teach our kids and leave the parenting up to the parents.
